Eco-epidemiology of Borrelia miyamotoi and Lyme borreliosis spirochetes in a popular hunting and recreational forest area in Hungary [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Borrelia miyamotoi, the newly discovered human pathogenic relapsing fever spirochete, and Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato are maintained in natural rodent populations. The aim of this study was to investigate the natural cycle of B. miyamotoi

Zero-Shot Fact-Checking with Semantic Triples and Knowledge Graphs [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Despite progress in automated fact-checking, most systems require a significant amount of labeled training data, which is expensive. In this paper, we propose a novel zero-shot method, which instead of operating directly on the claim and evidence sentences, decomposes them into semantic triples augmented using external knowledge graphs, and uses large ...

First detection of Borrelia miyamotoi in Ixodes ricinus ticks from northern Italy. [PDF]
, 2018 Borrelia miyamotoi is a spirochete transmitted by several ixodid tick species. It causes a relapsing fever in humans and is currently considered as an emerging pathogen. In Europe, B. miyamotoi seems to occur at low prevalence in Ixodes ricinus ticks but

Mathematical Analysis of the role of Information on the Dynamics of Typhoid Fever [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We consider a deterministic mathematical model to study the role of Information on the dynamics of Typhoid Fever. We analyses the model to study its boundedness and compute the threshold value known as basic reproduction number for determination of number of secondary cases and establishment of the the condition for local and global asymptotic ...

Machine learning predicts early onset of fever from continuous physiological data of critically ill patients [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Fever can provide valuable information for diagnosis and prognosis of various diseases such as pneumonia, dengue, sepsis, etc., therefore, predicting fever early can help in the effectiveness of treatment options and expediting the treatment process. This study aims to develop novel algorithms that can accurately predict fever onset in critically ill ...
